[TenTec] Orion Lost Audio - Please HELP

[A. Sewell]

Could this be related to the number and strength of signals on the band?  I
never seem to be able to reproduce it after the contest if over.  Just
playing around with the same set up I had when I had the problem and can't
reproduce it now.

73,

Alan  N5NA
